Lack of Justice

Although we call it the justice system, that term can be a misnomer for those who experience what that system can do. The story of this inmate likely expresses the feelings of degradation that many prisoners feel while they are locked away.

The slow passage of time can be the most torturous aspect of prison life. That torture becomes all the more potent if you feel that you don’t deserve to be punished. For many who are behind bars for non-violent crimes, the law and prison system can seem anything but just.
